Even on Fridays there was plenty of moving and trembling at the top of the leaderboard to starve the weekend, and some of the game’s stars were bright. Together with the 3-under 69 to claim to take part in the Justin Thomas lead, Abraham Ncer Nasser posted the best round of his debut in the Masters with 67, and Dustin Johnson and Cameron Smith both put up qualifying rounds together. Coming into Saturday’s roll, the four have a lead of 9 below.

However, for the participants on the second day of this year’s competition, it wasn’t all driving. Thursday leader Paul Casey slipped out of the top 10 after going over 1 of 11 holes. Tiger Woods, the top 10 on the leaderboard after Thursday, also slipped down to T22 after showing up by 10 in the second round. And Brian de Combeu, after the opening-round 70, is trying to miss a potential cut while he tries. Get out of the impulse early in the morning. That is 1 run overall and the game ended 3 overs on the first day of the so-called. D-Chembu will resume early Saturday morning with an eagle effort at the Par-5 13th hole.

Round 2 was called off due to darkness but will resume at 7:30 a.m. and Round 3 is expected to begin at 10:30 a.m. The goal at Augusta National is to complete the third round on Saturday. As for the rest of the claimants, the transfer that has taken place since Friday is here.

2020 Masters Leaderboard

T 1. Dustin Johnson, Justin Thomas, Abraham Anser and Cameron Smith (-9): That Ncer Nasser and Smith claimed the best round of the quartet on Friday after posting 67 and 68, respectively, to capture the lead. But Johnson and Thomas, World No. 1 and World No. 3, were as stable as ever. Johnson burned his 65 with a 70 in Round 1, while Thomas joined with a 69. He completed his second round with seven birdies as Jetty and DJ played almost two rounds on Friday.

T5. John Rahm, Patrick Cantley and Sungje Im (-8): Cantley’s 6-under was tied with a 66-day low Round 2 score as he moved into the leaderboard top five. It was his first bogey free round at August Gusta after 3 rounds last year and he made an incredible 20 in the last four rounds of the Masters.

T 8. Justin Rose, Danny Willett and 4 others (-7): 201 Mas Masters champion, his own – under 66 66 had joined the lower round that day, he freed himself from the opening-round 711. It was the best single-round score in this event of his career. Rose, a two-time Masters runner-up, had a very difficult start to her day. Starting with the second nine, he was in his first nine to 1 over before playing his last nine matches with 3 under.

T 14. Xander Scaffell, Paul Casey and 3 others (-6): Shacha Fell’s second round was upward when the game was called Thursday because he was under 1 through 12 holes after starting his day in the second nine. He doubled his second hole on Friday, but found a slight groove with a birdie on par-513. Before calling the game, he hit consecutive birdies at numbers 2 and 3.

T19. Brooks Koepka, Phil Mickelson and Charles Howell III (-5): You haven’t counted a four-time major champion since his opening round 70, have you? Because it would be stupid. Koepka brought a bit of heat as the Encore on Friday, to prove it, did 69 replaying cardings with six birdies a day. Mickelson turned 70, while Howell (Augusta, Georgia, native) is 4 years old in his second round with three holes left to play.

T22. Tiger Woods et al (4): Woods was among those who completed the second round on Friday. He started late on Saturday and finished overall, although he is in a position to make a run on Moving Day. The Tigers are now behind five leaders, although there are some heavy hitters against them. It will be a track at the top by golfers.

T27. Rory McLeroy, Scotty Schaffler and 5 others (-3): If not the opening-round 75 for McLeroy, after what we did on Friday, we can talk about him as a favorite to enter the weekend. He turned in in the second round – tied for his second-best 18-hole score in the Masters – and on several occasions, despite some weaknesses with Putter, he argued. Schaefler could not finish his second round but he is 2 under 13 holes.

T61. Bryson DeCombe and 7 others (+1): D Chembu shortened the all-out brawl, but it wasn’t nice to go in the beginning. He bogged Triple Par-4 3rd G then approached the turn he bogged three of his next four to dig a hole himself. The birdies at No. 6, 8 and 12 keep him afloat, but he needs to strengthen his second round to play over the weekend. It will resume its rounds on Saturday morning, with an eagle stretch on par-513.
